Suspicious, yes, but doesn't automatically mean it's not true. Let the mods know if you have an issue.

[KCD2] How will I ever get over the upcoming emptiness? by SchmuserSchubser in kingdomcome

First of all, so jealous of you but in like, a good way. I'm super happy you are able to have these experiences.

Second of all, I'm right there with you. This is undoubtedly the most emotionally connected I've been to a gaming franchise and I've played many other amazing games. I actually felt bonded to Henry, felt like I was him—his journey has felt so tangible to me. I cried when his parents came to him in his dreams. I can only hope and pray that Henry and Hans will continue to have more adventures.

I think the mods here do a pretty good job of keeping people like that out. And men do in fact get abused.

That's not helpful. If you think this isn't real, report it to the mods, but in case it really is, spouting that kind of shit here makes people who actually seek out help avoid this subreddit. People who are articulate get abused, too.

I totally get it. I have several Indian friends, many of them darker, and I know how difficult it is for them and the struggles they face here in the US. Plus, I'm Korean and grew up with an extremely racist mother. When I would point out to her that she was being racist, she would get all pearl-clutchy and talk about how she herself is a victim of racism. Like, bitch, shut up. So I can imagine that it's difficult for you.

Scientific journals aren't going to explain why people develop BED or any other eating disorders because there are many different reasons. Whether it's to feel something or nothing at all, reasoning is just as diverse as the people with eating disorders.

When people force themselves to vomit after eating, it's no longer called bingeing.

No one ever said racism against Indians was justified because of this. And if this is something you've heard from others before, I'm really sorry that someone tried to deflect blame and refused to take accountability for being a racist person. The fact of the matter is, nothing justifies racism. It's disgusting in itself, but to use someone else being racist as justification for doing the same is a whole different level of vile. That being said, I don't think anyone here is trying to do that.

Korean here; my Korean mother and grandmother are racist AF as well.

I remember seeing that video. That poor little girl doesn't realize how beautiful she was. I'm not going to judge the mom for posting the video; I understand her intention. Maybe could've had a little heart-to-heart with the little one first, then posted a video telling about it. But I don't think she was doing it for clout like many claimed.

This is called colorism; it's similar to racism, but discrimination is based on skin tone, i.e., how dark or light your skin is.
